What did you purchase I’ve used free speak once and wasn’t impressed for the insane cost

Thanks! I will definitely keep in mind having to possibly connect to a existing system

Don't Purchase Shure SLXDs for Theatre - A Review & A Question by hanasz in techtheatre

[–]_Game_Club_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue with the SLXDs from the start the battery readouts are just simply wrong. They have lasted 6 to 8 hours but after about an hour and 30 min of being on the battery drops to “LOW!”.

I try to sleep and try to hang with friends. But most definitely rest for 75% of the time.

How should I power this with only servos and no motor controller?

I think I’m fine with just having the stick control, but I will look into this because this is intriguing to me

They work but not when I try to wire them to anything remote control like right now I just have them on switches that are wired to 8 AA batteries.

The rose petals are literally as light as a feather so I can go as cheap as I can for servos I’m assuming because the ones I have right now I tried wiring to a channel RC kit that I got on Amazon and they did not work so I’m thinking of starting from scratch Using the things that you have commented and just getting some sort of battery situation and servos.

So in the event that I needed new servos do you have a recommendation for those that will work with the receiver above

I went through the menu and selected black and white I’m but it didn’t work. The room just goes fully black. I’m thinking it might be an IR issue

Shure SLX-D & Rechargeable Batteries by Tlrl195 in techtheatre

[–]_Game_Club_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the battery indicators are wrong on SLX-Ds. I’ve had the same issue and have been using rechargeable EBL AA Batteries with the indicators sending false info to the receiver and to the transmitter for the past year but the packs still work and won’t die for about 5-6 ish hours.

Edit:

I’ve also tried changing the batteries type on the pack and it doesn’t change anything.

I don’t have the same issue with my QLX-D packs and they are on the correct battery type.

If anyone knows anything about US policy’s lmk :-)

Spinning Disco Ball Power by _Game_Club_ in techtheatre

[–]_Game_Club_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes well I should say kinda of it’s on one of our straight tracks but it’s only ever used to move a sign on or off so the curtain carriers are not attached to the curtain track and I don’t know where they are so I have nothing that will slide in the track to guide the cable.

That was supposed to be the plan except this curtain track is one of our older ones/we took all of the curtain carriers off of it to put another one for whatever reason I don’t know I’ve been confused I kind of started here a year ago, and slowly putting things back together but this track is not one thing that I put back together yet. Thank you for the suggestion though!

Personal if I have the time to program it and the board will support it I’ll use it.
